Review of Game of Death (2011) by Michael V — 14 Nov 2011
This actually turned out better then most of the DTV movies Snipes has given us over the last few years. First off you have him battling it out with Gary Daniels and a pretty good itch through out the movie waiting for that moment to happen.
Plus hey, you get Ernie Hudson. Guy is great. And New Zealand hottie who knows how to throw a punch and fire a gun. She's a keeper in my book. Now one thing that does bug me... and it isn't just this movie.
A lot of of these DTV action movies do it. They try to get artistic with making a quick shot in black and white or in negative. Well it just doesn't work. The story line is numb and watered down and well insanely preditcable.
But Oh well. We're watching this for Snipes and Daniels and I wasn't disappointed. Snipes still shows he has the moves. I especially enjoyed the fight he has with a CIA op in a play room in the nutjob ward of a hospital.
You get padded walls, a inflatable chair, and an oblivious woman playing a piano. That's pretty sweet.
